Yeah but the point is once shit pops off, you don't just whoopdie doo put it to rest, millions of people will be affected.
Like with North Korea, obviously we would entirely eliminate them, but not before millions of people died.
MAD makes nuclear weapons pointless
Regardless of nukes, even with other bombs and missiles a lot will be lost.
right but your losses from combat will vastly outweight your territorial/political gains
MAD applies to non-nuclear as well
My point is that no I don't think there is much to be too concered about regarding possible conflicts with Russia but I wouldn't say that if an engagement did break out, that there would be a small number of casualties.
russias military is a joke
Yes but I don't think Russia would care too much about avoiding collateral damages. They would have no problem attacking civilian infrastructure if a serious conflict opened up.
they literally haven't finished fully phasing in the AK-74M, and it was adopted in 1991
by contrast the M4 carbine was adopted in 1994 and M16's are rare outside of the marines
Again, I'm extremely confident they would lose, but not before they take a lot of people with them.
i think i might be drumk lol
hell they still have tokarevs in inventory
I get it man lol
3/4 of a litre of rum
i don't think i'm drunk
North Korea is shit too but they still have the ability to kill millions of shit pops off.
tho
i think i'm more tipsy
haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
whataup
yep youre fucked up
@radeon
That's exactly the type of thinking that les to Vietnam
vietnam was 100% bureaucracy we could have easily won it if not for the pussy footing around
Keep underestimating your opponents and soon you end up fucked
Yeah like giving soldiers the wrong fucking bullets and not showing them how to clean their guns.
Im uniformed on this, why was the draft necessary for Vietnam? just occurred to me I have never questioned that.
nobody would volunteer
the war was unpopular
Eek, then why were we I it?
Like that's a bad fucking sign
Won against guerrilla? Not very likely, despite technological supremacy.
I guess I just wish we could not have to use draft for proxy wars if at all possible
because we couldn't let the communists gain a greater foothold in SE asia
south korea, the philippines, japan etc US allies are right there
Without a fight anyway
yep
and it semi-worked in korea
Oh ya, we didn't want Korea to happen in veitnam, explains the pussy footing
